Homelessness

Reading more of Criminal of Poverty I have a greater appreciation for the lengths people are driven to in order to attain the things we take for granted. Good food, shelter, and transportation are the fundamental building blocks to our comfortable capitalistic society. I did find it interesting, though, that the protagonists are forced into poverty and homelessness, where some of the homeless I have spoken to made it seem like they chose it as a way of life. We must appreciate what we have and not think differently of others for not having the same.
